Do you have up2date installed? The up2date application should have launched. If it's not installed, then I must have a missing dependency. this was an "everything" install, so yes up2date-2.9.46-1 is installed. Very strange. This works fine for me. Can you try running up2date from the command line? Perhaps it is crashing for some reason... "up2date", "/usr/sbin/up2date", or "rhn_register"? and should I run at 640x480x24 (which is the environment that firstboot encountered due to my bad) or at 1280x1024x16 (which is what I subsequently corrected it to). Just run up2date at whatever resolution you're at. rhn_register has been merged into up2date, so they're actually the same program now. running it now, all going well. during or after the calculation of the installed packages, the following message was sent to the x terminal window in which I started up2date: TypeError: hide() takes no arguments (1 given) upon connecting to the remote rhn server to upload info on my system, got the following message on the terminal: (up2date:28425): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: gsignal.c:775: no emission of signal "prepare" to stop for instance '0x85a3c78' TypeError: hide() takes no arguments (1 given) and then the following dialog (which I won't type in completely) came up: Error Message: Service not enabled for server profile: "rh80rc1" Error Class Code: 31 [...etc...] note that the word wrapping in this dialog is just a bit wrong. it appears to be writing a single line at a time so that blanks can be inserted at the beginning to show an indented effect, but in most lines one or two words wrap and the overall effect is pretty bad looking. if I resize the dialog wider, it just centers the poorly formatted text instead of fixing the bad wrapping. I just went to rhn.redhat.com and changed the entitlement to be for this machine. (actually same machine, but upgrade from milan to null.) reran up2date, but this time I'm getting "Free service limited du to high load". note that this error dialog also has the poorly wrapped text syndrome. I'll try again later, but it looks like up2date is working. do you want any of the above issues as separate bug reports against up2date? hmmm, looking at rhn.redhat.com, it shows this system entered, and I changed it to be entitled, but it also lists it as having no packages installed. (and thus needing no updates.) seems like the "service not enabled" error caused this. I'll keep trying to get through, and if it doesn't clear up I'll open a new report on that aspect of this. I am unable to reproduce this problem on any of my systems. Jay, have you been able to reproduce this? There is a stack of 64 bugs that have been in Modified state for a long period of time. I am closing these as Rawhide now. If you find that the issue is not fixed, please reopen this report. |
